About Elliotts

Our core purpose is to help our customers build. At Elliotts, we're clearly doing something right.

We've been around for over 180 years

- But we couldn't do it without our people. From our drivers to our operations team and everyone in between. We're one big team. We have over 300 people working for Elliotts. Our CEO, Tom is the great-great-great grandson of our founder!

Still chosen by customers in a crowded market

- Customers continue to choose us because we provide anything they need to build a house. But they choose us because we treat them like human beings, creating a strong relationship and building loyalty.


Values that reflect our business - we look after our team. We care. We listen. We try to help. We work harder than anyone else to put things right if they go wrong. We think about the long term, not just the here and now.


To succeed you'll be a great team player with a can-do attitude and you'll be right at home.

The role

Serving customers (both trade and retail) on the counter with a wide range of building materials. Ordering stock and merchandising the shop. Negotiating prices. Providing back up answering the telephone in the sales office. Taking orders and responding to a wide range of queries from customers.

Although previous knowledge and experience aren't everything, here's a few competencies that would help you hit the ground running;

Excellent customer service and communication skills. Ability to use Microsoft Windows. Knowledge of building industry products would be a distinct advantage but training will be provided for the right candidate who shows enthusiasm to learn.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a friendly person who is skilled at first impressions to join not only a great team but a great family run business, who strive to go the extra mile for its customers.
